Kestrel Kids

A family of kestrels have been nesting in an old sycamore stump I put up for them near the garden! They actually nested in the garden to begin with, but sadly lost their first brood to a carrion crow.

These pictures are of their second brood. I spent some time watching the three chicks as they grew.

To read all about their antics click here to link to my latest column in The Yorkshire Post.
